What's the most you've ever drank...at home...

Was never into drinking at home for my first 40 years, in fact always said I'd avoid it, but as baby landed in 7 months ago have had to remove myself from the pub and get used to cans in the house. So far the most I've managed is 10, how about you?

You rebel

I had forgotten, I drank a bottle of vodka about 2 months back when I was giving out about not getting out any more. That was a bad weekend.

I recall one even drinking a full bottle of Bushmills whiskey , think it was going cheep for 18 euro in lidl. Yes a large bottle but not the huge sized ones. I did the same with a bottle of gin once followed by a red wind I'm not sure how much. Think I went out after too after that as I was well tanked up but prolly didn't have much as I was pretty full. Yes , I can drink a lot. I've given up now in case anyone is concerned lol

nice going..10 cans at home with a baby....:(

An 8 pack of Heineken is the most I reckon unless I have friends over.

brevity

A 700ml bottle of Jameson. A bad night.

scudzilla

Bought a 320 box of Barry's tea a week last Friday, ran out this morning, and there's only 2 of us :pac:

I haven't drank from a can since Mosney '97, when my tennis partner pressed a Coca Cola to my brow, as refugees coming over the crest of a hill sang the Battle Hymn of the Republic. O Jesus.

I've been half-cut on six-euro grapes of wrath ever since.

Five cans of Carlsberg and a half bottle of wine. My wife drank the other half bottle.

A small baby could have a bottle every three hours , so over a weekend the baby might drink ... erm , 8 times 3 by .. how many hours in a weekend ? Maybe 30 bottles ? Your baby is harder than you.

I wouldn't say I'd be able for 8 cans but I did finish off a 20 box of bottles.

They go down far too easily

Edit. That was a once off. It will never happen again.

Just in case that Minimum pricing crowd is on boards.

Poitín. I'm not sure how much I drank but I remember thinking 'oh shit' and then woke up the next morning hammered and spent the day retching. Haven't drank spirits since. Stick to the beer.

The_Valeyard

Too much.

Spent most of the following day discovering God while hugging the toilet bowl, wishing I was dead, promising to never ever drink again.


Told the story to a few lads in the pub couple weeks later, over a pint.

Irish people don't have a drink problem at all ... 10 cans with a Baby in the house - good parenting there ...

An uncle of mine used to use Poitin mixed in a spray for cleaning dog kennels. Said it was very effective.

I've woken up from a house party to see a bottle of poitin having stripped the paint from a sideboard along a line from where the condensation dripped.

I wouldn't even touch the stuff these days tbh. There's nothing in it you cannot get from a good healthy overdose of Burgundy!

It's mad stuff. I wouldn't touch it ever again after that experience. I didn't even think I was drinking a lot of it.

Pretty fast

I thought about passing a comment like yours but then I thought to myself no, who the hell am I to judge anyone.

Last year I drank 14 cans of guinness while up all night playing online poker.

oh get over yourself... since when is it unacceptable for a drunk person to be in the same house as a baby? They're not necessarily looking after the little tyke.

They're just jealous of you being able to change a ****e loaded nappy while gargled.

Well drunks and babies do have some things in common, both speak gibberish, can't really stand up, some even wet themselves.

I drank 3 bottles of white wine out of a pint glass in under 2hrs once, i think it took me another 2hrs to get up the stairs to bed:D i dont drink at home at all now as we have 2 small kids

Quick, someone call social services - OP is undoubtedly going to juggle his baby with watermelons while standing on the roof of the house.

Cantona's Collars

I've a load of Wheat Beer,Pils and came home with a 20 pack of Miller this evening...........The strongest thing I drank all night is tea:o

10 cans of either Magners or Strongbow (was living in the UK at the time, can't remember which I had but there was a deal on 20 cans) is the most I've managed in one (quite long) sitting. I contemplated stopping at 7 but I decided I had to keep going so I could build a nice symmetric pyramid on my desk.

I also had two bottles of red wine one night. I think that was worse than the ten cans tbh.

Very rarely ever drink spirits at home. I did once buy a bottle of Wray and Nephew's Overproof rum as a friend had recommended. It tasted like what I imagine nail varnish remover is like. I did finish the bottle but it took several shots spread over several nights. >_<

Wacker The Attacker

A litre bottle of whiskey

Tonigh I drank two naggins and watched Miriam on da telle

Give over the both of you. Unless the drunk person is the only person there to look after the baby you are being over sensitive.

Galwayguy35

Drank half a naggin of whiskey over a few hours one night, feel like a lightweight compared to some of the hard drinkers on the thread.

Miley30

3/4 of bottle whiskey, I bloody well felt it the next morning.

Ha! Apparently a couple of people are appalled that I consumed alcohol while in the same building as a child!

Her mum was here too, so it's not like I was solely minding her.

When I thunk up this thread last night I'd had 8 cans. I'm now up making her bottle.

I think you and I missed the section in 'Good Parenting 2015' magazine that said both parents needed to be sober at all times when in the same building as a child.

Penny Tration

On my own at home - two vodkas or a glass of wine.

With company at home, a bottle of wine.

At his house (with company), a bottle of wine and four beers. I was falling around the place

Ooops, put 8 tots of whiskey instead of formula into her bottle, and gave her matches instead of her soother to play with while it was cooling. What am I like?

Wine and then beer- makes you feel queer.
Beer and then wine- you will be fine.

Holds true for me.

I've heard that, but if I mix beer and wine in any combination, it doesn't bode well :pac:

Yep.

Packed in loads of fun in my 30s, time for a new chapter. Hence drinking at home instead of crashing in at 6am. Or when I do get out now, it's home for 10 or 11.

Wine is a killer, last time I drank it I kept missing the bed and ended up on the floor.

LDN_Irish

I can't do wine at all. Someone gave me a bottle of Wolfblass Eagle Hawk Chardonnay for a birthday one year and I drank the bottle. It was lovely! Wine gives you a great buzz! I'd been missing out all those years! So I went to the shop for another of the same, bumped in to 2 schoolfriends I hadn't seen in years and invited them back. Cracked open the bottle, had another 3 glasses and had one of those moments of clarity when you hear yourself slurring. Went to go to the jacks and realised I'd ****ed up badly. Stumbled through the apartment and had to be carried to bed. Came very very close to crying when I woke up the next morning and realised how bad the hangover was. Never again. Sticking to beer and vodka from now on.
